Bollywood celebrities and their favourite sunglasses

Throwing shade

While you may not need those dark sunglasses to avert paparazzi flashes at the airport, you can still use them to give your in-flight repertoire a ‘who’s that girl?’ update. Take inspiration from the ones who do it best. Vogue trains its eyes on Bollywood’s style circle’s go-to travel sunnies. After all, nothing rounds off an airport look quite like a statement pair of these must-have accessories.

Our favourite jet-setter Deepika Padukone swears by round Lennon-inspired sunglasses to seal her It-girl status. Borrow from her book if your travel uniform too is made up of comfort-centric athleisure looks. Kareena Kapoor Khan is often spotted in oversized rectangular frames but her latest departure saw her shift loyalties to Rihanna-approved triangular cat-eyed frames, perfect for a spot of old Hollywood glamour with a futuristic hint.

Coloured tints are another favourite. Neha Dhupia prefers look-at-me green, Kiara Advani and Esha Gupta are all about the blues while Kangana Ranaut is partial to subtle brown. Take your pick. And then there are classic aviators. A style that never gets old, you can use it to feign nonchalance à la Parineeti Chopra and Athiya Shetty or elegance like Shilpa Shetty Kundra.
